Hi M.Bear
aye it says on them that if we leave the country we lose the permit.
I wasnt that bothered about going back anyway,well not for couple yrs anyway.
Easy for me as my parents and son are coming at xmas.Even talking about coming over the following one already lol
Not so good for Colin though as his dads 80 and wont get over,so means we wont see him for couple yrs

But for my daughter in a way its good thing,that way she will get on with life here and hopefully get over the b/f(whos coming in 3 weeks time)
Told her she will have to got school now as college she fancies hasnt got a place until feb.
This caused her to

I feel rotten,but she has to get on with things now,and make some pals,instead of always on puter to folks back in Scotland
